DIP Switch Instructions:

| Al Inputs Independent (Default setting)
All channels remain independent i this setting, may be used for 4 different signals.
---|---
| ‘Three Channel Inputs Signal Linked (3 Channels in Parallel)
Adjust the 4 dip switches can connects Ch1, Ch2 & Ch3 inputs together. One signal can feeds 3 channels. Each channel’s gain control and loudspeaker connection remain independent. The rest 1 channel remain independent input.
| Two Channel Inputs. Signal Linked (2 Channels in Parallel)
Adjust the 2 dip switches can connects both Gt & Ch2 inputs together. One signal can feeds both channels. Each channel’s gain control and loudspeaker connation remain independent. The rest 2 channels remain independent inputs.
| Al inputs linked (4 Channels in Parallel)
Adjust the 6 dip switches can connects all 4 channel inputs together. One signal can
feeds 4 channels. Each channel’s gain control and loudspeaker connection remain
independent.

Caution: Do not connect different inputs 10 each side of a channel when these channels are in parallel. Only 1 connected input will feed all parallel channels. One of the rest parallel channels can be used as signal lisk out to another apparatus. (A male to male XLR cable will be required for the linking out)

Specification

Protection Functions

• Overload Protection
  This amplifier has output current protection. Output current will be limited when exceeds the allowed maximum value. When a channel of the amplifier output current exceeds allowed maximum value (for example short circuit), the ampiifier will be disabled (muted) for 1000ms. The amplifier will restart after the short circuit comes back to normal.

• Input Voltage Protection
  When the input voltage is higher than the upper limit or lower than the lowest limit, PSU will enter protect mode and cut off the power supply.

• New Generation Redundancy Power Supply System
  This amplifier uses 2 identical PSU in one chassis. Controlled by specifical power management chips for load balance and redun- dancy. Backup PSU will work alone when main PSU fails. So dual PSU will supply more power and stability.

• Temperature Protection
  The amplifier comes with complete temperature detection, and monitors both PSU and amplifier simuitaneously. Output power will be limited when the temperature of the heatsink higher than the maximum limit and power output will be cut off. The amplifier will restart when temperature fretum to normal.
